the city, county, and State of New York,

and whosepost-oifice address is.25l Fifth avenue, in said city, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Neckties, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relatesto neckwear and its special object is to provide a form of neck tie, of novel shape and construction and which, when tiedin place, will. produce the I eifect of a double wing and a contrast of colors imposed one upon the other.

My invention resides in the novel construction or article of manufacture and combination of parts hereinafter described and more fully set forth in the claims appended hereto.

In the drawing forming partof this specification, Figure 1 is a rear elevation or face view of the tie embodying my improvements;

Fig. 2 is a like view of the front face of the tie; Fig. 3 IS an enlarged edge view of one end of the tie: Fig. 4 1s a sectional elevation of Fig. 3 on the line il of Fig. 1;-Fig. 5 is an end view of Fig. l somewhat enlarged;

and Fig. 6 is a front elevation showing the aspect of the neck tie embodying my im provements when tied in the conventional manner. p

I have illustrated my improvements in connection with the particular type ofa neck tie commonly called a string tie, although it will be manifest that the improvements can be used in other relations. In ties of this character, the effort has been to produce a widened or bat'wing efiect at the ends, so that the majority of ties of this character have ends laterally enlarged. My improvements, however, may be embodied in a tie of this character, where the ends are of the same lateral dimension as the band smaller. e

p In the tie shown, lindicates a neck band and 2 indicates generically the end of the tie. Instead of forming a tie with a single end, I produce two (or even more) ends or tabs, to form the wing or apron of the tie.

\ Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed November 7, 1914. Serial No. 870,779.

These tabs are preferably widened portions, as compared with the neck band 1. I prefer, in order to get the double tie or varicolored effect, which may be had with my,

improved tie when the same is finally formed about the neck of. the wearer, as shown in Fig. 6, to make one of the tabs or wings 3 a little shorter than the. other, and I still further prefer that the shorter of the wings 3, be placed upon the inside, so that when the same is tied in the conventional manner, the shorter wings 3 will be superposed upon the longer ones If the color or design of the shorter wings is made different from that of the longer wings, various contrasting efiects can be produced. The shortened wings 3 also produce the novel eifect, as .shown'inFig. 6, of a double tie.

While any of the conventional methods of manufacture may be employed in making this tie, I prefer that shown herein, in which the band portion 1 is made up of two pieces of material, the ends of which are used to form the tabs or wings 3 and 4. Theinner face of the tabs is formed of a single strip of material 5, which extends between the tips of the wings, but which is preferably not secured to the band portion of the tie, except by the interior stitching 6, so that when the ends 8 and l are opened out, as shown in Fig. 5, a single piece of material inside the wings will be presented. lhe' rows of stitching 6 are formed in the usual or conventional manner. Of'course, it is obvious that the tie and any of its parts can be built up of a numberof pieces of material without departing from my invention.

While I have shown my invention in a specific form, in connection with a specific type of he, it is manifest that it may be variously embodied, without departing from the spirit of my invention.

I claim: 1

1. in a necktie, the combination with a band or body portion, a plurality or tabs or wings extending from each end of the body portion, andforming tying portions of the necktie. I

2. In a necktie, the combination with a band or body portion, a pair of tabs 01' Wings Signed at the city, county and State of extending from each end of1 the body portion, New York, this 26th day of October, 1914:. the Wings being Wider tian the band or T body portion, one of the Wings on each end BAGHRAGH' 5 of the band or'body portion being shorter than the other Wings, all of Said Wings forming tying portions of the necktie.
